Synapses lost and found: developmental critical periods and Alzheimer’s DiseaseNeural activity is needed to fine tune brain circuits. MHC Class I molecules and PirB receptor, thought previously to function only in immunity, act at neuronal synapses to regulate synapse pruning and plasticity. Changes in expression could contribute to Autism and Schizophrenia, and to the synapse and memory loss in Alzheimer’s disease.
